Hello Dear Reader! Welcome to “Truth Treasures”. Here I share various links filled with Christ-centered truths I hope you can glean from. May you be blessed as you read! Would you let me know how this was helpful to you in the comments? I’d love to hear from you!
This edition has a common thread weaving through the various links below: God’s providence. I always find these reminders of God’s good and faithful reigning over all things a great encouragement. I hope you do as well.
Doctrine – To understand the truth of God’s Word well
Westminster Shorter Catechism Question 11:
What are God’s works of providence? God’s works of providence are His most holy, wise, and powerful preserving and governing all His creatures and all their actions.
A Quote – To make us think:
Focus on Missions – To stretch us
The Joshua Project offers eye-opening, heart-wrenching numbers about the world – that over 40% of the 8 billion people on the planet today are unreached with the gospel. Will you pray for the unreached today?
Picture and Scripture – To help us see
Christ-Centered Links
- In one of my last posts I talked about the importance of knowing who God is as He has revealed Himself in Scripture. This post addresses the same topic and is the first in a series on the truths of the gospel. It begins where the gospel must begin – with this question: Who is God?
- In her series exploring the I AM’s statements of Jesus, Cara has a wonderful post about light here.
- I think we all have a bit of a fear of man in us, yet Scripture clearly tells us it is a snare and that the beginning of wisdom is the fear of the LORD. If you, like me, need a reminder and a biblical point of view on this, I encourage you to read this post.
- And there is this post from The Palest Ink where Kristin poignantly weaves the reality of life from different perspectives and the changing power of the gospel. Her compelling words cause us, the readers, to examine the soil and fruit of our own heart and lives.
Sermons – Faith Comes From Hearing
Alastair Begg has an excellent reminder here on the providence of God as he preaches on the book of Esther. The irony of this gentle and lovely book is that God is never mentioned even once in its versus, yet the reader can clearly see God’s hand working, continuing to direct all things for His glory and the good of His people.
What I’ve been studying
In searching for a solid study to work through with a friend I found this resource at Naomi’s Table and have begun to study the book of James. I am only just beginning but have already found it most helpful as a biblically faithful resource which uses Scripture to understand Scripture. The stuff of meat, not fluff.
Thanks for dropping by. May the Lord bless you and keep you and make His face shine upon you as you grow in your knowledge of Him and walk in His ways. And don’t forget to
